Sideskærer C.K Tools T3887 — ESD, specialværktøjsstålklinge

C.K Tools Side Cutter T3887 is an ESD-safe side cutter with a special tool steel blade designed for precision cutting in electronics and electrical work. The tool combines electrostatic discharge protection with a hard-wearing cutting edge to minimise damage to sensitive components while ensuring consistent performance across repeated cuts. Its compact profile and angled cutting jaws provide accurate access in confined spaces and close-to-board trimming.

Advantages

The ESD-safe construction reduces the risk of electrostatic damage when working with printed circuit boards, semiconductors and other static-sensitive parts. The special tool steel blade maintains edge retention under frequent use and resists deformation, offering reliable cutting performance over time. The side cutter’s ergonomic shape supports controlled handling for precise snips, and the angled cutting geometry enables close, flush cuts without excessive force.

Key specifications

How to use

Position the side cutter so the jaws are aligned with the wire or component lead to be trimmed. Apply steady, controlled pressure to the handles until the blade severs the material, avoiding twisting or levering motions that could damage the blade or the workpiece. For PCB work, cut as close to the board as necessary for a flush finish while supporting the component or board to prevent flexing. After use, inspect the cutting edges for nicks and store the tool in a dry, protected place to preserve the blade.

Recommendations

Use the tool only on materials and wire gauges within its intended capacity; avoid cutting hardened steel or materials that may deform the special tool steel blade. Regularly clean and lightly lubricate the pivot joint to maintain smooth action and check the ESD-safe handle coating for wear. When working on sensitive electronics, follow standard ESD safety procedures in addition to using ESD-safe tools.
